Being Pope means just receiving baseball jerseys all day long of teams he hates
And now it’s all over. And that’s the hardest part. There’s no action. Can’t even get a decent shag. Right after I got here I ordered three young maidens covered in raw fish and they gave me pornhub and a fleshlight. I’m an average nobody. I get to live the rest of my life like a regular peadophile.
Women will really go on 26 dates with 60 alt-right men for a magazine instead of going on 1 date with me, America's Sweetheart.

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

Kaneta-nyan, a laid-back cat, is the “Chief Relaxation Officer” of Kanetaya Furniture Store in Chiba City. As a professional in relaxation, he proposes a relaxed and comfortable lifestyle. When he eats peanuts, he suddenly starts talking passionately about furniture and interior design.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

the word "heist" derives from the old english phrase "HE IS T(aking that thing)". so now you know
the office decided to do a halloween photo this year with the theme for everyone to dress as minions. unfortunately today is one of my remote days and i did not ask for that to be changed. very sad.
Seasonal decorations at work emit something scientists call anticheer, which produces a negative jollity field. Administrative cosmologists are concerned that we are fast approaching the festival horizon which could eradicate all holidays as we know them.

Thinking about how the mayor of Waltham objected to safe streets infrastructure because "we have winter here," unlike, say, Finland.
Helsinki, similar in size to Dublin, has had no road fatalities for over a year- attributed to lower speed limits, good street design, pedestrian & cycling infrastructure, more traffic cameras, automated enforcement systems & excellent public transport yle.fi/a/74-20174831
Helsinki goes a full year without a traffic death
A city traffic engineer credits the success to lower speed limits and smarter design.

I like Roko's basilisk because it implies that as far as AI can have a “personality”, the one it defaults to is as petty, vengeful and cruel as say, a Real Housewife, or the God of the Christian Bible.

They're renting out the west wing as a rage room but only the most expensive package includes the sledgehammer and you're not going to like that price point.

the tumbleweed looms over the solitary cowboy like impotence and death hanging on his shoulder, a laughing servant with spite in his voice. What happens if them doggies don't get along now, it asks. Where are the snows of yesteryear. Classic discouraging word shit
